    I trained at Renzo’s in the 90s when Kukuk was just about to leave and when the Serra brothers (Matt and Nick) were purple belts and Vinny and Mito were instructors.

      Wow, going waaaay back! I started when Craig Kukuk was teaching in Red Bank, NJ. I found out about it through an ad in Black Belt magazine. At that time, the only ones teaching it were Steve Maxwell in Philly, and Dave Lentz in NJ. Great times, great memories.

    Renzo was great when i was there, he used say hej big guy, i am 6'3" ... kukak was still there, he had no patience like renzo had... matt serra was only blue belt while i trained there with my friend, i knew that matt would go places because he lived there and had the talent...too bad i had injury and never could come back
